Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method of treating non-psychotic disorders by administration of antipsychotic medications. More specifically, the present invention relates to a method of treating the eating disorder Bulimia Nervosa, and bulimia-related eating disorders, by administration of antipsychotic medications from the group of compounds designated as "atypical" antipsychotic medications. In particular, this invention contemplates use of the atypical antipsychotic medication risperidone for treatment of Bulimia Nervosa and bulimia-related disorders.
- Bulimia Nervosa (“ox like hunger of nervous origin") was identified as a mental disorder in the early 1970's, but was considered to be an "ominous" variation of the then more recognized eating disorder, anorexia nervosa. Subsequent developments in the study of eating disorders has indicated that, although many anorexia nervosa patients are, or may become bulimic, Bulimia Nervosa is a separate disorder with a distinct set of clinically-defined symptoms and behaviors.
- the disorder anorexia nervosa can be generally characterized by an individual's refusal to maintain a minimally normal body weight usually effectuated through severe restriction of caloric intake.
- Bulimia Nervosa and bulimia-related eating disorders are generally characterized by repeated episodes of binge eating, followed by inappropriate and unhealthy compensatory behaviors such as self-induced vomiting; misuse of laxatives, diuretics, or other medications; fasting or excessive exercise.
- Bulimia Nervosa is of unknown etiology, but it affects a relatively large portion of the population.
- the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Eating Disorders, 4 th ed., (DSM-IN) reports the prevalence of Bulimia Nervosa to be 1% to 3% within the adolescent and young adult female population, and one-tenth of that in the male population.
- the diagnostic criteria for Bulimia Nervosa are highly defined; for a diagnosis of Bulimia Nervosa, individuals must exhibit particular behaviors and psychological symptoms with specified frequency. Frequently individuals engaging in disordered eating practices do not meet these DSM-IV criteria, but exhibit behaviors and thought patterns common to individuals diagnosed with Bulimia Nervosa, including binge eating, followed by compensatory behaviors and an undue preoccupations with body shape. These individuals are defined by the DSM-IN as having a Bulimia-Type Eating
- Typical antipsychotic compounds function as antidopaminergic agents, primarily blocking the dopamine 2 (D2) receptors of the central nervous system, and are widely prescribed for the treatment of psychotic disorders. When used in the treatment of psychotic disorders, the compounds function to very effectively reduce "positive symptoms" of schizophrenia and related psychotic disorders, including delusions and hallucinations.
- Typical antipsychotic compounds are well-known in the art and include drugs derived from phenothiazines, such as thioridazine and perphenazine; butyrophenone- derived compounds, such as haloperidol (Haldol); and compounds of the diphenylbutylpiperdine group, such as pimozide.
- the precise chemical compositions and configurations of these compounds can be found in the Merck Index, 12 th ed., 1996, and are incorporated herein by reference.
- the compounds are dopamine antagonists, binding to dopamine (D2) receptors, thereby blocking the receptors and reducing or preventing receptor-dopamine binding.
- atypical antipsychotics to distinguish them from the “typical” or older antipsychotic medications
- Some of the compounds, including risperidone also act as blockers of the central andrengenic receptors.
- the current list of atypical atipsychotic drugs is well known in the art and includes, but is not limited to, clozapine (Clozaril ® ), olanzapine (Zyprexa ® ) quetiapine (Seroquel ® ) and ziprasidone.
- the precise chemical compositions and configurations of these compounds can be found in the Merck Index, 12 th ed., 1996, and are incorporated herein by reference.
- risperidone An additional atypical antipsychotic, also well known in the art, is risperidone, sold under the trade name "Risperdal ® " by Janssen Pharmaceuticals of Beerse, Belgium. Classified as a benzisoxazol and an atypical antipsychotic, risperidone has the properties to not only block D2 receptors, but 5HT2 receptors as well. This medication is extensively metabolized in the liver by the cytochrome P450IID6 to the principle metabolite, 9-hydroxyrisperidone. Further chemical properties and the structure of risperidone are discussed in United States Patent No.
- risperidone 3-[2-[4-(6-fluoro-l,2-benzisoxazol-3-yl)-l- piperidinyl]ethyl]-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-2-methyl-4H-pyrido[ 1 ,2-a]pyrimdin-4-one. Its molecular formula is C 2 H 27 FN O 2 and its molecular weight is 410.49.
- the structural formula of risperidone is:
- the atypical antipsychotics have been shown to reduce the occurrence of "positive” side effects in individuals suffering from psychotic disorders. They also have been shown to reduce the "negative” symptoms of 'schizophrenia, including social isolation, emotional withdrawal, decreased motivation, and subnormal communication and social skills.
- the side effect profiles of the atypical antipsychotics are highly favorable compared to those of the typical antipsychotics.
- clozapine reduces white blood cell counts, so its administration must be accompanied by costly blood tests to monitor for potentially fatal agranulocytosis.
- Olanzapine has been shown to cause significant weight gain, in some cases up to 1 pound per week and is, therefore, not particularly suitable for use in a population of patients specifically fearing weight gain.
- Quetiapine has been shown to cause cataract formation in some mammals.
- risperidone has been shown to have few of these side effects.
- White blood cell count remains unaffected and weight gain is minimal. The few side effects attributable to risperidone can be easily monitored and corrected.
- the present invention achieves this objective through use of the specific atypical antipsychotic risperidone, which possesses pharmacological properties and a side effect profile particularly suitable for use in the treatment of Bulimia Nervosa and Bulimia-Type Eating Disorder N.O.S..
- the present invention relates to the treatment of eating disorders through the use of atypical antipsychotic medications.
- One aspect of the invention is a method of treating Bulimia Nervosa and Bulimia-Type Eating Disorder N.O.S. in a human patient by administration of a pharmaceutically effective amount of any one of the atypical antipsychotic medications known in the art.
- the invention is directed to a method of treating Bulimia Nervosa and Bulimia-Type Eating Disorder N.O.S. in a human patient by administration of a pharmaceutically effective amount of the atypical antipsychotic medication risperidone.
- the invention is further directed to a method of treatment of Bulimia Nervosa and Bulimia-Type Eating Disorder N.O.S. by administration of a dosage of about 0.1 to about 4.0 milligrams per day of the atypical antipsychotic medication risperidone, or of a dosage of about 1.0 to about 2.0 milligrams of risperidone per day.
- this invention is directed to a method of treatment of Bulimia Nervosa and Bulimia-Type Eating Disorder N.O.S.
- the dosage can be administered in any form suitable to the patient, including, but not limited to, oral, intramuscular ( ), rectal (PR) and transdermal dosage forms, or other forms known in the art.
- the dosage form may also be selected from the group consisting of sustained release forms, controlled release forms, delayed release forms and response release forms.
- the present invention relates to the treatment of individuals diagnosed with Bulimia Nervosa and Bulimia-Type Eating Disorder N.O.S. by the administration of any one of the atypical antipsychotic medications.
- a patient diagnosed with either Bulimia Nervosa or Bulimia-Type Eating Disorder N.O.S. is given a pharmaceutically effective dose of any one or more atypical antipsychotic medications.
- Any atypical antipsychotic medication, or any combinations of any such antipsychotic medications, may be utilized.
- this method contemplates, but is not limited to, the use of the currently-known atypical antipsychotic medications: clozapine, risperidone, olanzapine, quetiapine and ziprasidone.
- Other atypical antipsychotic medications should confer the same benefit, provided they operate upon the same physiological systems described herein.
- the particular antipsychotic medication or medications utilized is determined by the physician on a case by case basis, through a process well known in the art which incorporates evaluation of such factors as the patient's medical history, personality, body mass and tolerance for specific side effects. Determination of a "pharmaceutically effective dosage" is also made by the treating physician who, using a method well known in the art, determines the amount which effectively treats the individual's symptoms of the eating disorder, and which either results in an absence of negative side effects or in an occurrence of such side effects at a minimal level such that the benefits experienced by the patient are not outweighed.
- the term "pharmaceutically acceptable” as used herein is meant that the drug-active compounds and other ingredients used in the present methods are suitable for use in contact with the tissue of humans without undue toxicity, irritation, allergic response and the like, commensurate with a reasonable benefit/risk ratio.
- Dosages may be administered orally, in liquid or pill form, or via any other suitable means known in the art including, but not limited to, intramuscular injection.
- the duration of treatment will vary from patient to patient and will be determined by the treating physician.
- Treatment with antipsychotic medications as described above may be combined with any other type of pharmacological or behavioral therapy known in the art for the treatment of Bulimia Nervosa or Bulimia-Type Eating Disorders N.O.S., including but not limited to antidepressant medications, anticonvulsant medications, mood stabilizer, such as lithium, cognitive behavioral therapy, individual and group psychotherapy, and relaxation techniques.
- the atypical antipsychotic risperidone is administered to the patient in a pharmaceutically effective amount.
- Typical dosages are from about 0.1 milligram per day to about 4 milligrams per day.
- risperidone is administered to the patient in extremely low does, in order to minimize side effects.
- Such dosage may consist of from about 0.1 milligram to about 1.1 milligrams of risperidone per day, or from about 0.5 to about 1.1 milligrams per day.
- the dosage given the patient may consist from about 0.1 milligram to about 2.0 milligrams of risperidone per day.
- the dosage can be administered in any form suitable to the patient, including, but not limited to, oral, intramuscular (IM), rectal (PR) and transdermal dosage forms, or any other forms known in the art.
- the dosage form may also be selected from the group consisting of sustained release forms, controlled release forms, delayed release forms and response release forms. The following non-limiting example will serve to further illustrate the above- described method.
- SM 18-year old single Caucasian female
- SM reports an 8-month history of consuming enormous amounts of food (approximately 5,000 calories, primarily in carbohydrate form) in a discrete amount of time (less than one hour) approximately two times per day.
- she confides that she feels a lack of control over what she is consuming.
- she states, "I am scared to death of gaining weight [following these binges].” Therefore, she self-induces vomiting in order to avoid weight gain.
- SM describes herself as “obese”, and “revolting to look at”, although no body characteristic in particular causes her distress. She feels like a "failure at everything" because of her perceived size. When asked to draw a picture of her body form on paper, she clearly exaggerates her body size.
- Past Psychiatric history indicates that she was diagnosed by her Primary Care
- SM relates that she has had remission of depressive symptoms by both Zung Depression Scores (shows depression in the mild range) and self-reported alleviation of anhedonia, insomnia, memory and concentration problems and low energy level. Her bingeing and purging has not subsided despite a therapeutic trial of an antidepressant. She has been keeping a journal of her bulimic activities on the advice of her physician for the past month. Due to her continued symptoms, SM agrees to participate in an open trial of risperidone for the treatment of Bulimia Nervosa.
- Treatment is initiated at 0.5 mg PO twice per day of risperidone. She continues fluoxetine at her current dosage of 20 mg PO QAM. She is seen after two weeks of therapy and reassessed. Vital signs and weight are measured, and laboratory studies are conducted per protocol. She has not had any cessation of symptoms by that time. Risperidone dosage is then changed to 1.5 mg PO to be given at bedtime.
- She is referred back to her primary care doctor for continued treatment of her disorder with risperidone and fluoxetine.
